A Three-Row SUV Rebuilt for a New Generation
The 2026 Buick Enclave is a significant departure from the version it replaces. Where previous Enclaves leaned on a V6 powertrain and a conventional interior, the 2026 model arrives with an all-new turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 328 horsepower, a 30-inch ultrawide curved infotainment display, and a cabin that prioritizes the quiet, composed feel Buick has always been known for. For Metro Detroit families who need three rows and want something more refined than a mainstream SUV without paying full luxury prices, the Enclave lands in a useful spot.

2026 Enclave Trims: Preferred, Sport Touring, and Avenir
The 2026 Enclave is available in three trims. All three share the same engine, the same three-row seating for seven, and the same 30-inch infotainment display. The differences are in styling, interior materials, and comfort features.
Preferred - Starting around $46,400
The entry point for the 2026 Enclave is more complete than most base trims at this price. Standard equipment on the Preferred includes 20-inch alloy wheels, a 30-inch ultrawide curved display with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless charging, heated front seats, a Bose 12-speaker audio system, tri-zone climate control, HD Surround Vision, an AutoSense hands-free power liftgate, and second-row captain’s chairs. AWD is available for approximately $2,000 more. For most buyers, this is the trim to start from, the feature list punches well above its price point for a three-row SUV.
Sport Touring - Starting around $48,900
The Sport Touring builds on the Preferred with appearance-focused upgrades rather than additional comfort or tech. You get 20-inch High Gloss Black and machine-finish wheels with painted pockets, a black mesh grille, black mirror caps and roof rails, and a flat-bottom steering wheel inside. The Sport Touring also adds a digital rearview mirror and a head-up display, two features that carry genuine daily-use value. For buyers who want the Enclave to look a bit more assertive without reaching into Avenir pricing, the Sport Touring makes the most sense. FWD standard, AWD available.
Avenir - Starting around $56,800
The Avenir is the Enclave’s luxury configuration, and it is standard with AWD. It upgrades the interior substantially: premium quilted and perforated leather-appointed seating, a Bose 16-speaker audio system (up from 12), ventilated and massaging front seats, heated outboard second-row seats, ambient interior lighting, a panoramic power sunroof, and exclusive 22-inch alloy wheels. The Avenir also includes the head-up display and digital rearview mirror from the Sport Touring as standard, and available Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance is offered. If the Enclave’s appeal is its quiet comfort and premium feel, the Avenir delivers that most completely.
Engine, Drivetrain, and Capability
Every 2026 Enclave is powered by a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 328 horsepower and 326 lb-ft of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The new engine replaces the previous 3.6L V6 and produces meaningfully more power while improving fuel efficiency.
Key performance and capability figures:
- Engine: 2.5L Turbocharged 4-cylinder, 328 hp / 326 lb-ft torque
- Transmission: 8-speed automatic
- Drivetrain: FWD standard on Preferred and Sport Touring; AWD standard on Avenir; AWD available on Preferred and Sport Touring
- Fuel economy (FWD): 20 MPG city / 25 MPG highway (GM-estimated)
- Towing capacity: up to 5,000 lbs with standard Trailering Package (included on all trims)
- Seating: 7 passengers in 3 rows
- Cargo: up to 97.5 cu. ft. maximum with rear seats folded
- Overall length: 207.6 inches
For Michigan drivers navigating I-94 through Wayne and Washtenaw counties, the turbocharged four-cylinder's torque-forward character feels well-matched to highway merging and moderate grades. AWD is worth considering for anyone commuting on secondary roads in Downriver communities where plowing after a snowstorm is inconsistent.

Why the Enclave Works for Southeast Michigan Families
Three-row SUVs are a practical reality for Michigan families with multiple kids, or for anyone who regularly hauls passengers to sporting events, road trips up north, or extended family visits. The Enclave’s third row is notably more usable for adults than most compact and midsize competitors; the overall length of 207.6 inches gives it enough cabin depth to accommodate adults in all three rows without the feeling that the third seat is purely for emergency use.
Buick’s QuietTuning active noise cancellation technology, applied to all 2026 Enclave trims, produces a cabin that is noticeably quieter than most SUVs at highway speeds. On M-14 between Saline and Ann Arbor, or on I-96 heading into Detroit, that matters more than buyers expect until they’ve driven 90 minutes to a family event in it. The Enclave’s ride quality is similarly composed; Michigan’s spring pothole season aside, this is a vehicle that makes long drives easy rather than tiring.
If you are cross-shopping the Enclave against the 2025 Buick Envision or the 2026 Buick Encore GX, the primary distinction is the third row and cargo capacity. The Envision and Encore GX are two-row SUVs. If your household regularly carries more than five people, or if cargo flexibility is a priority, the Enclave is the appropriate choice.
